When they saw the phantom suddenly appear, the people from Tai Xu Sect immediately narrowed their eyes and finally came to their senses.
"Who—who are you?"
One of them forced down his fear and shouted the question.
Ning Ruoxuan's classmates also stared at the suddenly appearing phantom in shock, unsure what to do.
But the phantom paid no heed to the Tai Xu Sect member's question and instead looked at Ning Ruoxuan.
"Brother, what's going on...?"
Seeing the phantom appear, Ning Ruoxuan spoke in delighted surprise, then showed a hint of doubt.
Ning Wangshu smiled slightly. "This is an image manifested through my Immortal Sense. Earlier, when the protective spirit artifacts on you were activated, I sensed it. Worried you might be in danger, I hurriedly released my Immortal Sense to check what was happening."
Hearing this, Ning Ruoxuan immediately understood. "So that's what happened!"
Then Ning Wangshu said, "All right, let me deal with these people first. We can talk afterward."
"Mm!"
Ning Ruoxuan promptly answered.
Since Ning Wangshu already knew what was happening and had manifested an image through his Immortal Sense, Ning Ruoxuan had even less reason to worry.
But when Ning Ruoxuan's classmates heard how she addressed Ning Wangshu, they were taken aback.
Was this Ning Ruoxuan's brother?
Surprised, Ning Ruoxuan's classmates all stared intently at Ning Wangshu. However, Immortal Light enveloped him, so they could only make out his general features; they couldn't see him very clearly.
Ning Wangshu had now turned to look at the people from Tai Xu Sect. His gaze fell on the man who had earlier been seething with menace and claimed that even the gods couldn't save Ning Ruoxuan.
He stared calmly at the man and spoke unhurriedly. "You just said that even if a god came, he couldn't save
